Edinburgh , UK – March 8th 2013 -- Game In Scotland - Nevistech Ltd today announced the Free release of Go Yeti!, the quirky magic carpet game packed full of characters and personality.

Go Yeti! challenges players to navigate their flying carpet over sand dunes and outer space, avoiding mosquitos, pop-up toys, fly-swatters and other surprises. The game features four unique Yeti characters, each with their own personality and wardrobe.

??"We wanted to create a fun environment which kids can enjoy as much as their parents.", said Anthony Magrath, founder of Nevistech.

"We added lots of zany animations to make kids laugh, whilst including more surreal moments for the adults. Our favourite scene involves flying your carpet through outer-space, dressed as a Scotsman and gaining extra points by sucking up mosquitos into your bagpipes".

Go Yeti! has been designed to appeal to a wide age group. "Producing a game that was equally challenging for adults and kids required some unique game design", said Anthony. "The game features innovative software which adjusts the gameplay to create just enough challenge to keep you hooked, without ever getting too tricky."??
